Who Is Responsible Under New York Law For Store Falls?
If property owners, including businesses, fail to make reasonable efforts to keep their properties safe and you suffer a slip-and-fall injury as a result, the property owners may be legally liable under the legal principle known as premises liability. This may include situations in which you are injured because of:
- Debris in store aisles or walkways, including spilled products
- Slippery floors and parking lots
- Uneven floors
- Cracks in floors or sidewalks
- Broken or poorly lit stairwells
- Broken stair railings
- Ripped or tattered carpet
